Ok so I got my H3 on the 3rd of April, well today prior to the start of my trip in the early a.m. I decided to go give her a good wash. Well i found some rock scratches in the rear fenders from the previous owner ( Fleet vehicle) well I was thinking of pulling the fenders and maybe covering them with Bed Liner or something of the like?

Any ideas on how to cover up the rock dings, not look tacky and be more resistant to future dings. I kinda like the Idea of black fenders on the pewter/ silverish paint. Normally given the nature of the 4x4 i wouldnt mind the paint dings but this being a daily driver Id like it look kinda nice....

I believe etching primer will cover the dings and smooth out... Next throw on some Bed liner.. I think it would look awesome...

Another option is what I have.. I have color matched vynle strips on te fenders.. U can't see them unless u look close and when they get bad u pull them off and put new ones on

I think it would look really BA with a plasti dipped grill and with a grill guard and maybe the grey bumper too? over kill?

I just think if I am going to spend $45 on a gallon of the stuff I might as well get my moneys worth. Plus soing this on the fenders will be easy to just touch up

Take it in the mountains and get a matching scratch on the other side.

On any other color I think the black rhino lined fenders look good, but I won't be doing it to mine unless I find a grey-colored rhino liner paint job.

If the shop near you wants to, they will mix it. They also have no price control from shop to shop so you have to find a good one.

And I really wanted to do the whole truck. Don't want to pay that price though.

Yea I kinda like the black fender look. I am still thinking about it though.
There's a guy running around OKC with the blacked out fenders. He's more active on clubHUMMERoffroad than here. He has some nice mods on his truck to get ideas on, if you're going to Disney for the wounded warrior you might see him there and see how the fenders look in person.

H3slate had his done with color matched LineX. The guy that did it didn't use the uv additive, do they are fading, but for durability it can't be beat. If you only want to do it once and forget about it, that's the only way to go. Just make sure they use the uv stuff.

I really wanted to go but I had a 4 day weekend mmini vacation 2 weekends ago, and last weekend was Tri-State in Enid ( cousins last so the wife made me go). So I had to miss it this year. maybe next year.....

Thanks for all the Ideas guys. I know a LineX shop is close to me in edmond, maybe I will hit them up and see what it would cost.
